When can you make a compensation claim for a road traffic accident injury?

Being involved in a road accident is a traumatic experience. It can leave you with physical and psychological injuries. The physical injuries might range from minor bruising or whiplash to injuries to your brain or spine which have long term effects on your future, and that of your family.

Whether you were the driver of a car, motorbike, van or lorry, or a cyclist or pedestrian, you may be able to claim compensation. You can pursue claims in many circumstances including:

Accidents involving uninsured drivers

Accidents involving hit and run drivers

Accidents involving drink driving

Public transport accidents

Fatal road traffic accidents

Accidents where there is an allegation that you were partly responsible.

What compensation can you claim?

Additional to the compensation that can be recovered at the conclusion of the personal injury claim, money can be requested during the course of the claim to fund rehabilitation as well as:

Compensation for physical or psychological damage or both

Compensation for the pain and suffering caused by the injuries and the things needed as a result of your injury

Compensation for financial loss, for example, for loss of earnings due to the road traffic accident.

The amount of compensation you get depends on:

The seriousness of the injuries

The extent of financial loss

The support required for the future.

As well as the compensation that can be recovered at the conclusion of the personal injury claim, money can be requested during the course of the claim to fund rehabilitation.

The breadth of experience in our personal injury team means it is likely that we have already recovered compensation with similar circumstances to yours

We have a specialist team with many years of experience in dealing with complex road traffic accident claims involving all types of road users

We have particular experience in acting in cases where there are allegations that the claimant was partly responsible for causing the road traffic accident they were involved in. This is known as contributory negligence. We make a careful examination of evidence such as witness statements and photographs, and visit the accident site if appropriate. We’ll advise you of the best course of action and of whether any concession should be made for contributory negligence

We can help with claims for hit and run accidents or accidents where the other driver did not have insurance. The Motor Insurers’ Bureau (MIB) holds a fund to ensure that people do not go uncompensated in these circumstances
